Project 365: Week 21

This week has been a lot of fun. There was a graduation, a trip to the park, two days of summer vacation, TONS of gardening and the start of Memorial Day weekend.

While Nana and Papa were visiting for the week between preschool graduation and kindergarten graduation, Papa (the gardening […]

I’m a Memorial Day Hottie!

I am SO happy it’s Friday! All of the kids have been out of school for two days now, and with the holiday weekend, we’ve got big plans. I’m excited! I’m also excited because, as you probably know, I’ve been working on losing weight for what feels like forever.

But, it’s […]

What A Difference A Year Makes.

Just ten short months ago, I was dragging my then-five year old into the school. He didn’t want to go, and he certainly didn’t want me to leave him there.

Wednesday morning, I dropped him off for the last day of kindergarten. He was infinitely more confident, only needing his kiss […]

How DID We Meet?

We have been really busy crossing items off our Summer Bucket List the past week or so (that I’ll be telling you all about!). I encourage you to go ahead and sign your family up…I’m so excited that we have a list of things that we want to do this […]

Family Movie Night: We Speak For The Trees

My kids like TV. A lot. In the afternoons, when the girls are having “quiet time”, they’re usually watching a a show or a movie. When all of them have had a long day and need to wind down, I put in a movie. If I’m tired and it’s raining, […]

Project 365: Week 20

I decided this week that since I’m starting to get a little more comfortable using my camera in manual mode, but still need lots and lots of practice, I was going to make a point to get it out every day and use it. And I have. So, while I […]

Fart Jokes Are Good For The Soul.

One of my favorite people in the entire world is turning 29 on Tuesday. I made her a gift already, but I gave it to her super early because I couldn’t wait. And she told me I wasn’t allowed to buy her anything. SO. That leaves me with no other […]

Gluten Free Friday: Italian Shrimp Soup

So, I was trying to jump start my weight loss a little, as I’d hit quite the plateau since our household went gluten free (I am SO CLOSE to my 40 lb goal, y’all), so I tried the Digest Diet. It was pretty restrictive, and I’m not so good with restrictive […]
